"I had the 'Hanamaru Don' and it was delicious! At first glance, it seemed like there wasn't much filling, but as I dug in, that was not the case at all. Inside the paste, there were several pieces of minced pork, which were really tasty. The texture was just right, providing a satisfying chewiness, and the flavor deepened as I savored it. It felt like a little luxury. It also came with soy sauce with dashi, which made it even more delicious! Of course, it was already tasty without it. I wonder if this soy sauce would taste good on anything. The joy of savoring something so flavorful. It was so delicious. The miso soup was made with clam miso soup. It was not skimped on, with plenty of clam meat. It was delightful to pick out and eat the clams. It was a bit disappointing when there were small bits of clam left in the shell. At home, I would definitely make sure to clean it up. The dashi in the teapot was also a nice touch! It was delicious even when drunk as it is. Oh, writing this is making my mouth water. When you eat something delicious that you can only get at that particular restaurant, you can't help but feel grateful for choosing that place. It really enriches your soul. I'll definitely be back. Thank you for the wonderful meal!"

During my stay in Sapporo, I found that there were surprisingly many Chinese restaurants in the hotel, and I was starting to crave Japanese food. I searched on Tabelog for a place near my current location where I could have a Japanese set meal, and I hit the jackpot! There was a place called "Dekitateya" near the Clock Tower. It was less than a 10-minute walk from my hotel. Even though it was around 11 a.m., the place was quite crowded. I had my current favorite, grilled Atka mackerel set meal, and my wife had a salmon set meal. The rice was corn rice with a fried egg on top, and the miso soup was clam soup. We poured soy sauce generously over the fish. The corn rice was delicious as expected, and I asked for a second helping, which was a complimentary plain white rice. I picked up the leftover Atka mackerel pieces, put them on the rice, poured some soup over it, and ate it like ochazuke. The satisfaction level and cost performance were very high. Corn rice is the best.

Dekitateya is a delicious restaurant that specializes in freshly dried fish and seafood bowls. Today, I had a plate of fried fish including sea bream, trout, and cod with a generous serving of tartar sauce. The fried fish dish costs 1408 yen, and I also ordered a side of corn mixed rice for 418 yen. It ended up being quite a good value for the quality of the seafood.

A seafood restaurant located in the Clock Tower Building. It has a casual atmosphere, like a diner or izakaya. I visited for lunch and ordered the set meal with three types of grilled fish. The selection varies daily, but on this day it included saury, tuna tail, and mackerel. Each piece was large and satisfying to eat! They were tender and delicious, but towards the end it might get a bit repetitive. It seems like it would be more enjoyable to come at night and share with a few people.

I entered the restaurant casually, but found out that on Sundays, a 30% discount was offered on a platter of three types of grilled fish. I decided to go for the fish instead of the seafood bowl. It was delicious! The restaurant, located underground, was the only one bustling with customers as all the surrounding shops were closed on Sundays. It was a lucky coincidence to be able to enjoy delicious Hokkaido fish.

◾️Delicious three kinds of dried fish◾️White rice and miso soup with clams, featuring grilled mackerel, fatty mackerel, and tuna tail. I don't remember the exact amount, but the fish was around 1300 yen, and the set with rice was about 320 yen, totaling a little over 1600 yen. It seems like the prices have gone up compared to before! However, the volume and taste of the fish exceeded the price! The rice is also served in a large portion, and you can get one free refill. The service is excellent.

These days, it's hard to feel like eating a lot of meat for lunch when it's hot every day. Today, I went to this restaurant at someone's request. There seems to be a decent number of seats, but I had to wait a bit. The menu mainly consists of fish set meals or seafood bowls. I chose the thick-cut silver salmon set meal and opted for the limited edition "corn mixed rice" for the rice. You can choose between white rice or mixed rice, and you can only get one refill of white rice. It seems to be the system. I've been going to this type of restaurant a lot lately, but I wonder if everyone really gets refills that often? (laughs) The restaurant has an open kitchen where they grill the fish, so the inside of the restaurant is quite smoky. Depending on when you go to the customers, the smell can stick to your clothes and hair, so you need to think about the timing. The silver salmon set meal was indeed huge and satisfying due to its thick cut. I usually only have salmon set meals at hotel breakfast services, so this felt quite luxurious in comparison. The saltiness was just right and it was delicious, but the corn mixed rice was really tasty. It had a soy sauce-marinated egg yolk on top, which was a nice accent. The generous amount of grated daikon radish that came with the fish was also nice. It might be a good choice for days when you feel like eating fish. Thank you for the meal~

Lunch during travel is the best. It's cheap and delicious. The popular "Three Kinds of Dried Fish Set Meal" is delicious. The clam soup is so tasty that it's hazy. The seafood bowl is also good, but is it something to try for those who have been there a few times? For beginners, the "Three Kinds of Dried Fish Set Meal" is recommended without hesitation.

Kanamaru, a popular sushi restaurant known for its fresh sushi, has a branch at the Clock Tower in Sapporo. I sometimes visit this branch for lunch as it is close to my office. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you are greeted by the delicious aroma of grilled fish. The menu offers a variety of options including grilled fish, rice bowls, and fried dishes, but I always go for the "Gochisou 3 kinds" set. The types of fish vary depending on the day, and on this particular day, I enjoyed tuna cheek, hokke (Okhotsk atka mackerel), and fatty mackerel. The combination of these flavors with Hokkaido rice is superb, and I always make sure to get a free refill. This restaurant is a great place to enjoy delicious grilled fish that you may not often have at home. Although the lunch price exceeds 1600 yen, it is definitely worth it. #lunch #Sapporo #Hokkaido #hokkaidolove #gourmet #EnoLog

I missed lunch at work and arrived around 3 pm on a Saturday, which was a bit late. Most of the other shops in the Clock Tower Building were closed, so I was relieved to find this place open. I had the "Three Kinds of Dried Fish" set meal with asparagus rice. The three types of fish were very generous and delicious. I felt very satisfied. I will definitely come back again!

I don't know how many times I've been here, but this is a favorite restaurant of mine with high-quality set meals. I always order the freshly made three kinds of dried fish set meal for ¥1320, which offers great value and allows me to enjoy seafood. This time, I tried the asparagus mixed rice, which is a recommended monthly special. The three options for the dried fish were tuna tail, fatty mackerel, and bluefin tuna. The tuna tail was juicy like collagen, the mackerel had just the right amount of saltiness, and the bluefin tuna paired perfectly with grated radish, making the rice disappear quickly. The dishes are always rich and delicious. I will definitely come back. Thank you for the meal.

During the usual lunch hours, the Clock Tower Building is bustling with office workers. Today, I went to a restaurant I had been wanting to try - the freshly made fish restaurant! There were many fish options on the menu, so I was indecisive. I ordered the silver salmon set meal, and my friend ordered the deluxe set with three different dishes. The smell of the grilled fish made me really hungry. The food was served in about 12 minutes after ordering. I poured dashi soy sauce over the fish, along with grated radish. The charcoal-grilled fish was delicious! You can also pour soup over the rice to make ochazuke at the end. The ochazuke was also very tasty! They offer one free refill of rice. The restaurant was packed as soon as it opened. The customers were mostly office workers from nearby, as well as business travelers in Sapporo. I found out that this restaurant is actually a chain of the Hanamaru revolving sushi restaurants. In addition to the one at the Clock Tower, there are also branches at Factory and Stellar Place. I would like to try those next time. It was delicious!

It's been almost 20 years since I last visited Hokkaido! It was just a day trip for work, but after finishing work, I found a nice restaurant nearby. Right near the clock tower. When I saw the clock tower before, I was disappointed, but seeing it again after all these years, it was really wonderful! Maybe I've grown up (laughs). The restaurant had a great smell of grilling fish and smoke, which got me excited. There were more local office workers than tourists, which was also nice. I had the cut-off rice bowl for 1078 yen, which was limited in quantity but still available even after 1 pm. The menu was extensive and had many other attractive items. The vinegar rice was topped with a variety of toppings like tuna, shrimp, salmon, bonito, and more. Truly Hokkaido! My companion ordered the grilled fish set meal, which was also very satisfying. Great experience.

The salted and dried overnight saba (mackerel) set meal with three types of fried dishes was delicious. The fish itself is not heavily seasoned, so it's best enjoyed with the accompanying dashi soy sauce and grated daikon. The fried dishes were incredibly tasty. The tartar sauce was also excellent. I might try the fried set meal next time.

I am satisfied after eating a delicious fish set meal. I enjoyed the silver salmon with dashi soy sauce, grated radish, and miso soup with clams. I appreciate Japanese cuisine more and more as I eat. I finished with ochazuke, leaving only one fish bone on the plate. I feel completely full without any guilt. The fish is not greasy and does not have a fishy smell. I think my parents from the older generation would be happy if I took them here.

I used it for a work lunch on a regular day! It seems to be getting crowded lately~ Today, I went around 11:40 am, but it was already full. I wonder if it's because of the popularity of the seafood bowls. Today, I had the grilled mackerel and mixed rice set! I waited for about 20 minutes! It's no exaggeration to say that it's a representative gourmet dish of Hokkaido. The mackerel was juicy and crispy with fat! The mixed rice had small shrimp and rich egg yolk! I finished with a clear soup.

I came again today following yesterday's visit♪ The fried dishes were also amazing!!!! One of the three kinds of fried dishes was sold out, but the salmon fry was especially delicious and surprising. Sometimes I notice that the amount of tartar sauce is a little small... When you come to Sapporo, be sure to visit this place!

Sapporo business trip meal first edition♪ It's much colder than Osaka, but the atmosphere is nice overall♪ The grilled salmon was incredibly delicious (^^) The rice and miso soup were also excellent(^-^) Finished off with a delicious tea-soaked rice dish⭐️ If I have time, I'd love to come back again⭐️

I visited this restaurant because I saw several reviews on Tabelog saying "the grilled fish set meal is delicious, but the sashimi is so-so." The Stella Place branch near the hotel was crowded, so I chose the Tokeidai branch instead. We were the second group to be seated around 5 pm. I ordered the silver salmon with sakura shrimp mixed rice. I was surprised by the size of the salmon, it was quite big! The taste was great, with just the right amount of fat and a strong salmon flavor. The rice refill was free, and I initially chose the mixed rice, which turned out to be the right choice! It had plenty of sakura shrimp, making the broth very flavorful with just the right amount of saltiness. The miso soup that came with the meal was also delicious with clam broth. They also served bonito broth in a teapot for ochazuke, which was exquisite! I had thought that dining in Sapporo was expensive, but I was surprised by the reasonable prices at this restaurant. It's great value for money considering how filling the meal was. If I ever come back to Sapporo, I will definitely visit this restaurant again.

Wandering new curry mania/fresh ramen mania, a lone old man. This is a memorandum-like review by the old man. If you are looking for concise information about the restaurant and dishes, please move on to other reviews around here. In between "fried rice tours," it's important to mix in different things. So, here are two places for "grilled fish-style Japanese set meals." These restaurants are operated in three locations: Sapporo Factory (Sankaku-kan B1), Stella Place (CENTER 6F), and Sapporo Clock Tower Building (B1). They are also produced by the super popular revolving sushi chain "Nemuro Hanamaru." Many predecessors have given high ratings (with some exceptions), so the expectations are naturally high. The "Three Delicacies" dish, which is a combination of three grilled fish dishes, is a representative menu item, and other items such as individual grilled fish dishes and seafood bowls are also highly rated. Hmm, looks good. It seems to have a good lineup. I also like "raw fish," but I really love "dried fish/dried overnight fish" where the flavor of the fish is condensed and heightened. In Hokkaido, the "Atka mackerel" is especially delicious, with good fat content, easy-to-eat texture, and good separation of the flesh. In the past, even the sizes that couldn't fit in the grill were considered "common fish," but now they are expensive... It's better not to eat the small sizes. It doesn't seem like the same fish. In my younger days, I used to like the females with their bellies full of roe, but as I grew older, I preferred the males. "Mukawa-produced" is famous, but surprisingly, it is also caught in a neighboring town of Kushiro called "Shiranuka Town." It's quite close to the coast, and I once saw fishing boats overturning and rotating while fishing, which made me wonder if they wouldn't capsize. Also, the "dried under-ice saffron" (from the Nemuro Bay Central Fishermen's Cooperative) was delicious. It's a slightly small ice-under fish, but it's packed with flavor. I'm not sure if it's the same quality level, but if you have the chance, please try it. Also, "sweet pickled herring" is delicious. Oh, I'm digressing again. Now, about this restaurant. It's located in Nishi 2-chome, Kita 1-jo, Chuo-ku. It's in the basement of a building just north of the Sapporo Clock Tower, which is said to be one of the "three biggest disappointing tourist spots in Japan" (?). (It's my own imagination to think of a big building. LOL) I entered the restaurant around 1:30 p.m. (Tuesday/holiday). The interior is a style with a large floor with table seats scattered around. There is no wall between the aisle and the seats, so there is not much sense of oppression. However, it's a bit unsettling as you can see everyone eating from your seat. On the left side of the entrance, there are a few box seats. It's also a passage to the backyard, so it's a bit unsettling. There were a fair number of customers for the time of day. Well, it's a holiday, so it's expected. Although there were empty seats on the large floor, for some reason, we were guided to the box seats on the left. There were about 1-2 young couples among the other customers. I checked the menu and understood the ordering method. The basic pattern is to choose the main fish species and cooking method, and then select rice and soup as additional options. I was aiming for the "Three Delicacies," but the fish species for the day were ★ Atka mackerel ☆ Sōhachi karei ☆ Madai kama... There are times when some kind of "kama" is included, as I have already learned from previous reviews. I was prepared, but I wasn't too happy because there was little meat to eat. Also, "Sōhachi karei" has a unique smell (especially when dried) that I can't accept at all, so it's not an option. Then, how about "mackerel"?

A popular restaurant serving grilled dried fish and seafood bowls in the Clock Tower Building underground dining area, where there are a variety of restaurants. I visited right when they opened, and the service was very attentive. I appreciate being able to enter even a few minutes before opening. The Three Kinds of Special Set Meal (Hokke, Sōhachi, Tuna Tail Meat) for 1,078 yen, and Rice and Miso Soup with Clams for 280 yen. Unfortunately, the fish in the set meal had very little edible parts, especially the tuna which was mostly just the tail. The dried fish, prepared using a special machine, lacked the expected flavor enhancement from drying, and the instructions to pour plenty of soy sauce to enhance the taste made sense. The only highlight was the well-grilled fish over charcoal. The rice was nothing special, and the dashi for the tea pickles was tasty but plain. However, the clam soup was quite delicious. You can choose mixed rice, but if you want to enjoy tea pickles with extra rice, it's best to order mixed rice first. This popular restaurant operated by the revolving sushi chain Hanamaru didn't quite meet my expectations. As someone living in a coastal town, I didn't find the main attraction, the dried fish, appealing. Hanamaru is known for being in Nemuro, a treasure trove of seafood, so in a way, it seems like they've become too urbanized. I think it would be even better if they could incorporate a bit more of a coastal feel in a positive way.
